From a purist point of view, there is probably only a few true examples of discrete variation in humans. However, we have the common sense practical real world ways to describe some things as discrete. A coma scale used, Glasgow, is discrete. Also, vision is expressed as discrete values. See attached related links. In addition, number of seizures is discrete along with pulse (heart) rate.

  1. Blood type: Individuals can have different blood types (A, B, AB, O) that are controlled by discrete genetic factors.
  2. Hair color: Variation in hair color, such as black, brown, blonde, or red, is determined by discrete genetic factors.
  3. Tongue rolling: The ability to roll the tongue is a discrete trait controlled by genetic factors, with some individuals able to roll their tongue and others unable to.

What are the 3 examples of variation?

Three examples of variation are height differences among individuals, eye color variability within a population, and different blood types among people. These variations are the result of genetic diversity and environmental influences.

Is the problem y equals 3x a direct variation if so what is the constant of variation?

y=3x is a direct variation in that y varies directly with x by a factor of 3. Any linear equation (a polynomial of degree 1, which is a polynomial equation with a highest exponent of 1), is a direct variation of y to x by some constant, and this constant is simply the coefficient of the "x" term. Other examples: y=(1/2)x is a direct variation, and the constant of variation is 1/2 y=-9x is a direct variation, and the constant of variation is -9

Is the number of textbook authors sitting at a computer discrete or continuous?

The number of textbook authors sitting at a computer is discrete because it can only take on whole number values (1, 2, 3, etc.), with no intermediate values between them.

Is a DRAM variation that is designed for computers with multi-core processors?

That would be DDR-3 memory. Some multi-core systems use DDR-2 memory. Then of course there is cache memory, but that is a variation of SRAM, and it has been used ever since the 386 or 486 machines. Nowadays, cache memory is not in discrete chips, but a part of the processor. Placing the cache memory and memory controller on the CPU die greatly improves the throughput.

no.


Is 5x plus 3 equals 8y plus 3 a direct variation?

Oh, dude, direct variation is when two variables change in the same way. In this case, 5x + 3 = 8y + 3, so technically they are changing in the same way by adding 3 to both sides. So, yeah, I guess you could say it's a direct variation, but like, who really cares, right?
